aim slightly above head level when in first-person 0:08 As of v0.12, Hand Axe price decreased from 300 Francs to 250 Francs and now has an underhand swing
Actually, the stab of the sabre is very effective for hitting multiple targets. If you turn on 'hit sound effects' which produces a metronome like click each time you hit a target, you'll find that when using the stab you're very consistently get 3 clicks (the max), as it is easy to aim the stab, and the linger of the hitbox is quite long, while sometimes with the slashes you might not get it every time due to how quickly the swing occurs.
my line of reasoning was mainly for zombies that are not in a vertical line in front of you and are more spread out yes i am aware that it still hits 3 zombies regardless but in terms of how wide the sabre can swing i still find the side slashes more effective
Things to know as a mobile player: Just like in pc if you wanna keep your safe distance while stabbing multiple zombies im verticle areas. U should try flicking your screen when u thrust the down stab so its more consistent at hitting zombies. The jump attack is famous on pc but I DO NOT RECOMMEND YOU TRY THIS ON MOBILE. It is just too inconsistent to do so. If using the heavy sabre for headshotting just use the overhead swing and leave the jump tricks to the pc users and do not use side swings as it is very niche. Flicking with the over and underhanded stab is highly advised to hit zombies in a vertical area due to the long stab time and massive range.
@@Red_Azurelz very much so. It does have uses but this is more shown in hardcore gameplay as the shamblers become very dangerous and not easy to kill. Mainly if you are cornered the side swings can save your of u hug the edge and use it by a bunch of shamblers. This is specifically used in hardcore and only in scenarios where u have no other options.
@@deandraamirullah3843 Unfortunately Guts and Blackpowder did not add this feature to mobile so at the moment u actually can't continue reloading. So for us mobile users its shoot and reload all over again or hope you got the amount of pellets u needed to reload. This is the same case with horse artillery and the db pistol if u reload one barrel u cannot continue loading it as a mobile user.
Personally, hand axe is 'riskier' despite people saying how minimal the range matter. I finds myself clearing hordes much easier with the sabre and the handaxe much stronger behind barricades.
@@tonycallme3667 just use it and as time goes by you get used to the short range and it will eventually turn into a straight upgrade once you master it
@@WilliamC. no lol? the dps is signifcantly worse on the heavy sabre because you can only headshot with upswings in third person without jumping. You need to go through way too many hurdles to make using heavy sabre worth using. Hand Axe is just more reliable
@@Kwasmo It is easy to get headshots with heavy Sabre and sorta easy with Sabre, it is hard to get headshots with handaxe because of its short range and bad angle. And if you use musket handaxe is worse then bayonet since Sabre is very good for crowd control. Hand axe is very unreliable.
Love the video but something to note is that as of update 0.14.8, I noticed that in the shop's stats for the hand axe, the one for Line infantry's has a headshot multiplier of 2.3x (the standard headshot multiplier for most melee weapons) while the hand axe for the seaman has a headshot multiplier of 1.5x, which means each swing will deal 36 less damage. All this to say, use the saber/boarding axe on the seaman.
2:07 this is the main problem here everytime i sau that the zapper resilient debuff got remove people say im lying because they say the description is still the exact same
using handaxe maybe difficult at first because of it short range but just keep practicing as time goes by and one you get used to handaxe short range if will be a straight upgrade to you
@@realhaterofbacon I agree, BUT. Ahem... Rifle IS good, but... yeah, it lacks the use and practicality. I really hope they will make Rifle better or just give it more uses... you got me there...
@@engineergaming8272 No because the amount of zombies you can hit is more important then damage. Also the low range means you are far more likley to get grabbed. And you can frequently get headshots if you use side swing. And most of the time both Sabre and hand axe 2 hit.
I personally hate the hand axe with a passion. Sure that extra 15 dmg comes in useful but its range completely makes it bad in my opinion. Heavy Sabre is generally just an upgrade of the Sabre and i always run with it over the hand axe

is heavy sabre better then hand axe or not?

both are better than the sabre anyways
Did they actually remove the hand axe resistance to zappers?

Heavy Sabre:
This guy really desvere more views with his awesome content
This man is so underrated.
Glad to be your 900th sub
I always thought the attacks of the melees were random, i didn't knew the attacks could be changed by the crosshair. Very useful video though
@@Maemae-29711 this game would be hell if the attacks were always random

Im getting flashbanged because of the brightness jesus

I love hand axe cuz of uhh, its like im slapping zombies and they just die
And yes, i use aggressive style
w video,next is heavy sabre and the lance,i hope im right
handaxe is goated
Yeah have good hit and there both bit really good
The only bad thing about it is that it's kinda risky playing it specially around hordes with runners in it, (I always die from them due to lagspikes)
I am still extremely salty with how difficult it is to melee locks using any axe weapon. Handaxe is amazing tho
locks as in direction locking?
@@realhaterofbacon i think lock as the lock in the copenhagen first objective and the lock in catacombes de paris to the streets

eh, it's range is ass and no flicking.
Heavy sabre next????
How do you change the swing direction)
Relly good, and, one ask, how use the Spear?
Average guts and blackpowder server 0:55
Flicking is something u forgot to talk about (it's basically using the thrust but flicking it )
Let me be honest, this game has very good balance. In my opinion there's just no weapon in this game that is objectively better or worse.

the thrust make it safer to clear horde but it pretty slow
